So 2-3 bowls SEC won't fill, Independence, Birmingham, and possibly Texas Bowl.

I believe there hasn't been a ruling made on Missouri yet and no one seems to know if they're eligible or not. Most platforms are assuming the NCAA won't rule in time and they're assigning them to a bowl in their projections. ESPN and The Athletic both has them in the Belk..

NCAA just ruled and is upholding its bowl ban on Missouri after the school appealed. Should be some adjustments made to the projections and one more bowl game the SEC won't be able to fill.

Good chance the SEC has 8 bowl eligible teams (UGA, LSU, Alabama, Florida, Tennessee, UK, TAMU, Auburn) for 9 bowl spots and 3 will be in the NY6/Playoff. Leaves 5 teams for 9 bowls and 4 needing to be filled.
